Based in a 19th-century toll house on Mitchell's Pass, this place makes for a fun lunch stop. The small and quirky menu is filled with traditional treats including curried tripe and trotters, chicken pie and the roosterkoek burger (roosterkoek is a type of bread cooked over coals). Finish with a slice of milk tart and a cup of strong coffee.
